I’m a SublimeText die hard!

I do regularly try VSCode to see what I’m missing.

VS Code has great remote editing that I do use.

However, on my M1 Pro 16”, VS Code is noticeable laggier than sublime Text!

Just clicking on a file in the side bar and waiting for text to appear has lag. Many non-nerdy people might think it’s instant, but I can see the lag clearly! LOL

For my tastes the VS Code UI is cluttered and generally feels slow. The extensions are great but also a nightmare of updates and alerts of things broken.

If it’s your thing, you can use CoPilot in Sublime Text through a plugin that actually works really well!

I’m on the fence about CoPilots benefits though.

Sometimes I’ll flick over to VS Code to use the chat copilot if I need an answer for an API call etc….

If I had to stick with one, I’m sticking with Sublime Text.
